OF the United Labor party to rntify tho
ticket of the State convention was held
Saturday night in Union Square. The
principal platform was at the northern end
OF the square, and from this stand James
McMackln, James Z. Quinn, Henry George
and DIR. McGlynn spoke. There were about
3WO.pcople assembled in the square when
the speech-making began. From several
| wagons in the square speeches were made
by the cOlorcd knight Of Labor, Frank
Farrell, John Mitchell and others There
were no disturbances of any kind. The
threat of the Progressive Labor party (the
Socialists) to hold a counter demonstration
amounted to nothing
Shortly after eight o'clock Mr.. John Nc
| Mackin was introduced as chairman of the
meeting and was heartily applauded. He
made brief speech, in which he declared
that the United Labor party was the only
American party of the day. The resolu-
tions adopted rehearsed the principles
enunciated by the Syracuse convention. 1t
was nearly ten o'clock when Henry George
was introduced. He was greeted with APP
pause and made q brief address, reiterat-
ing mis- theories regarding tho land ques-
tion.- He predicted the success of the
| Labor ticket in the coming campaign.
| DIR. McGlynn also made few remarks.
| Among other things, he said that the pres
| ent revolution Of the working classes would
| be more far-reaching than that of l116. He
then referred to his trouble with Arch
bishop Corrigan, saying: Il made only
one speech in the last campaign, and was
| ordered to remain silent tried to hide
within my own heart this outrage on Amer
| lean liberty, of which l was the victim. A
| man, like you and me, sent me letter, In
| which he dared to say, (here McGlynn's
| voice faitered): Il forbid you to take any
| part in any political meeting without nv
consent" Who was hel [Groans. ]
The representative Of q power 5000
miles away. They say gladly shook the
| yoke Of the Church for the more exciting
life OF politics, but they little know tho
humility, love, devotion and sacred honor
brought to Christ's altar when l assumed
the garb of the humblest priest" DR.. Nc.
| Glynn continued ut some length to attack
| the Church for its action in eXcommunicat-
| ing him because he would not abstain from
politics. DIR. McGiynu concluded by de-
| claring that he would never return to q
| church whose demands would dsbase his
manhood, diminish his citizenship and stul-
tify his conscience. 'Only two persons"
| he shouted, 'can eXcOmmunicate me; God
and myself. God has room enough ut his
table for all his children, and shall re-
main ut it, and l shall always preach
Christs religion"

| NEW YORK, Sept. 19.-Johann Most de-
nOunccd the whole list of those who had
any thing to do with tho conviction of the
Chicago Anarchists in violent speech last
! evening before a meeting of Socialists. Tho
substance of Most's harangue was that at
the Haymarket affair, innocent workman
were fred upon because somebody, who is
still unknown, had fired bomb. The
blood of the workngmen shot down by the
| police cried to Heaven. A mockery of a
trial had condemned seven OF the most re-
spected members Of the cause. The jury

the evidence perJurcd and the lives OF
the martys sworn away. n chorus OK

"A life for lifer' at will be bullets, not

GRINNELL TALKS.
CHICAGO. Sept l9.-State's Attorney
Grnnel! returned from the East yesterday
and in an interview regarding the Anarchist
cases said: 1.-The decision OF the Supreme
| Court could not have been a surprise TO
any one familiar with the facts and law in
the case. The testimony was conclusive
as TO guilt; the trial according to law, tho
jury intelligent and non partisan. and tho
rulings and Judgment OF the court agree
able to the law. 1t seemed that the Su-
premc Court must have affirmed as it did,
and furthermore, do not think the Su-
| premS Court or the united States VIII
grant writ in the case"
On being asked if he would sign q petit
| ton for the Communication OF the sentence to
| Imprisonment for life Mr.. Grinnoll said:
so far as my Office Is concerned my duty
| in tne1Anarchist cases is ended. l do not
expect to sign any letter OF recommended
| ton to the Governor for the Communication
of the sentence Of any Anarchists, but
shall do nothing to prevent the friends
the defendants seeking relief from the Gov
| ernor. Neither shall assist them. After
the rendition of judgment ! did say and
now repeat thst the conduc: OF Schwab
and Fielder during the trial and while nd
| dressing the court before the sentence was
comlnendable. There were respectful 10
the court and did not breathe vengeance
and revenge as did the others, but see no
| way in which the cases can be separated"
